Abstract

An electrical cable connector comprises a plurality of female contacts 20 and a plurality of cables 50. The female contacts 20 are aligned and retained in a row extending in a right and left direction in an insulative housing 10, and one end of each cable is connected to a corresponding female contact in the insulative housing 10. Each of the female contacts comprises a base portion 21, which is fixed in the insulative housing 10 and to which the core wire of a corresponding cable 50 is connected, and a resilient arm portion 25, which is continuous from the base portion 21 and extends along the base portion 21 with a predetermined distance therebetween. When this connector is engaged with a matable connector, each female contact receives and holds a corresponding male contact of the matable connector in a space between the base portion 21 and the resilient arm portion 25, thus establishing the electrical connection of the female and male contacts.
